In commonly used batteries, the negative electrode is graphite with a specific electrochemical capacity of 370 mA h/g and an average operating potential of 0.1 V with respect to Li/Li +. There are a large number of anode materials with higher theoretical capacity that could replace graphite in the future.
The manufacturing of negative electrodes for lithium-ion cells is similar to what has been described for the positive electrode. Anode powder and binder materials are mixed with an organic liquid to form a slurry, which is used to coat a thin metal foil. For the negative polarity, a thin copper foil serves as substrate and collector material.
During the initial lithiation of the negative electrode, as Li ions are incorporated into the active material, the potential of the negative electrode decreases below 1 V (vs. Li/Li +) toward the reference electrode (Li metal), approaching 0 V in the later stages of the process.
Mainly, the high solubility in aqueous electrolytes of the ZnO produced during cell discharge in the negative electrode favors a poor reproducibility of the electrode surface exposed to the electrolyte with risk of formation of zinc dendrites during charge. In order to avoid this problem, mixing with graphite has favorable effects.
The interaction of the organic electrolyte with the active material results in the formation of an SEI layer on the negative electrode surface . The composition and structure of the SEI layer on Si electrodes evolve into a more complex form with repeated cycling owing to inherent structural instability.
The active materials incorporated in the making of the electrode include AB 2 Laves type alloy (Moriwaki et al., 1989) and AB 5 hexagonal close-packed alloy (Iwakura et al., 1988). Farschad Torabi, Pouria Ahmadi, in Simulation of Battery Systems, 2020 In practice, most of negative electrodes are made of graphite or other carbon-based materials.
